A summer saturday event

Took our teddy bears to the zoo for a picnic. Naturally, we brought along our fanny packs and Martinelli's. What else can one do in ten hours at the Hogle?
  • Have a staring contest with an owl. Win.
  • Ride the giraffes (on the carousel); name them.
  • Eat strawberries next to a peacock.
  • Peek through the prairie dog holes.
  • Count the bats in the cave (I gave up).
  • Find all the bugs from Malaysia in the bug collection.
  • Hug in front of the scary monkeys.
  • Ask a stranger to take a picture with a polaroid camera.
  • Run through the tiger exhibit.
  • Ask as many people as possible where you could get your face painted.
  • Detour on the way to buy a pen. Everytime.
  • Watch unsuspecting people get sprayed by the dinosaurs.

    Riding on Horace and Matilda!
    Top it off with some Cure on the way in and hollering to Arcade Fire on the way out.
    All in all, this makes for a pretty satisfying, sweaty day. Well, to put it mildly (on both aspects). Oh, and don't forget the cotton candy!
